Zhang Qingli blocked the doorway to the room, crying and shouting that she was not allowed to come in.
Seeing this, everyone understood perfectly.
Song Jianmin stared at Zhang Qingli in disbelief, as if he were seeing her for the first time.
"Did you really take your sister-in-law's necklace and your second brother's money?"
Liu Aimei was truly impressed by Song Jianmin.
"I said it wasn't taking! It wasn't taking! It was stealing! Song Jianmin, have you even been to school? Can't you tell the difference between stealing and taking?"
Xu Guiying glanced at Liu Aimei.
Under pressure from her mother-in-law's authority, Liu Aimei pouted and couldn't help but say to Zhang Qingli, "You'll be arrested soon."
Xu Guiying sighed and said to the police officer, "It was our family who reported it missing. We discovered it was missing tonight. Zhang Qingli was at our house this afternoon, and she was missing her necklace and 30 yuan."
With witnesses all here, Zhang Qingli's attempts to stop her were futile.
Old Man Zhang and Old Woman Zhang cried out in pain and howled like ghosts in the yard.
Zhang Qingli was pulled aside.
Two police officers quickly entered the house.
The gold necklace was found under Zhang Qingli's pillow, along with 30 yuan.
The perpetrator was caught red-handed.
Zhang Qingli opened her mouth, her exaggerated curly hair hanging listlessly on her scalp, and suddenly she burst into tears.
Xu Guiying watched this scene expressionlessly.
Do things the way they should!
In their past life, the Zhang family caused the Song family to be destroyed and die. This is all retribution for the Zhang family!
The police officers returned the items to the Song family on the spot.
I still have to go to the police station to give a statement.
In just a few days, the Song and Zhang families have become old acquaintances of the police station.
When Zhang Qingli was led out of the courtyard, she scratched and clawed at Song Jianmin.
"You bastard, go and call the police with your family! Song Jianmin, you're disgusting! You're the one who brought me to your house today, it's all your fault!"
Song Jianmin stood there blankly, letting Zhang Qingli pat him.
Xu Guiying did not want to stop it.
This is what Song Jianmin deserves.
30 yuan is nothing, the important thing is that gold necklace!
I bought it for 452 yuan!
According to the Public Security Administration Punishment Law, Zhang Qingli should be sentenced to at least several years in prison.
"I don't want to go to jail! Mom and Dad, please save me!"
The police led Zhang Qingli ahead, with the Song family following behind. Zhang's parents were still crying.
There was a lot of discussion in the alley outside.
"This time, the Zhang family's daughter is definitely going to jail."
"She stole a gold necklace! It's worth several hundred yuan. With such a large sum of money, she'll most likely go to jail."
...
Song Jianmin hesitated for a moment, then called out to Xu Guiying.
"mom……"
Xu Guiying stopped her, saying, "Don't call me Mom. After you get home from the police station, pack your things and get ready to leave."
Song Xinfu glanced at Xu Guiying.
The Song brothers couldn't help but try to persuade him.
Song Guomin: "Mom, Zhang Qingli was wrong in this matter, and Lao Wu was also deceived."
Song Yangmin also said, "Fifth brother, you should quickly apologize to your parents."
Having just been slapped in the face, Song Anmin spoke with a grimace, "Fifth Brother, don't do anything reckless again."
Song Jianmin was a head taller than Xu Guiying.
Xu Guiying would have been softened by her youngest son's pitiful look in the past, but she had been betrayed by these scoundrels so many times that she no longer held any hope.
“If a child is not taught, it is the parents’ fault. But Song Jianmin, your father and I have raised you to the age of 20. We have never lacked food or clothing for you since you were a child. If you wanted to study, we would support you. If you didn’t get into university, your father and I would find connections to send you to be an apprentice.”
"Your father and I don't care who you want to marry this time."
After Xu Guiying finished speaking, she grabbed Song Xinfu and followed the police in front of her.
Liu Aimei found the necklace she had been longing for and calmed down a bit. She snorted at Song Jianmin, "You can't blame your parents for this. They told you a long time ago not to associate with Zhang Qingli. You just didn't listen."
Song Guomin tugged at Liu Aimei, "Stop talking."
Liu Aimei pursed her lips.
They're all just armchair critics.
As they walked out of the alley, the neighbors were still pointing and gossiping. The Zhang family members started cursing Zhang Qingli again, saying that she was dishonest and had fallen into the abyss of stealing.
"Does our Zhang family lack you for food or clothing? Why are you stealing from other people's homes?!"
"This is how your dad and I always teach you. Can't you give us a break?"
"Look at your older brother, he's upright and honest, how come our Zhang family produced such a worthless piece of trash like you!"
Zhang Qingli's reputation for theft is now inescapable.
But Zhang Hongwei isn't married yet!
The Zhang family still had to find a wife for Zhang Hongwei, so they could only shift all the blame onto Zhang Qingli.
Zhang Qingli cried, "You all want to sell me so you can have money to get my older brother a wife!"
Old Lady Zhang slapped Zhang Qingli across the face, "How dare you say that!"
The police officers couldn't stand it anymore and told the Zhang family to be quiet.
Once they arrived at the police station, the Zhang family burst into tears and wailing again.
After Xu Guiying, Lao Er, and Liu Aimei finished giving their statements, Song Jianmin suddenly knelt down in front of Xu Guiying.
"Mom, now that everything has been found, can we settle this privately? Otherwise, Qingli will go to jail!"
"She's so young, she can't go to jail!"
The eldest brother and his buddies were truly impressed by Song Jianmin.
I never realized the fifth brother was so stupid!
Xu Guiying was truly enraged this time; Song Jianmin had far exceeded her expectations.
"Zhang Qingli committed theft! She stole your sister-in-law's gold necklace. There are witnesses and physical evidence to prove it. You can't just plead for leniency!"
Song Xinfu immediately lifted Song Jianmin up and asked the police officer, "Are there any procedures to follow?"
Police officer: "Wait a minute, we still need to complete some paperwork."
Zhang Qingli's case involves a large sum of money, and it's currently a period of strict crackdown, so there's absolutely no possibility of settling it out of court!
The tension in Zhang's parents' hearts finally snapped.
Zhang Qingli is estimated to be imprisoned for two or three years.
Song Jianmin was dragged back to the Song family home by Song Xinfu.
Xu Guiying and the rest of the Song family followed a step later.
Song Xinfu's voice could be heard even outside the Song family's residence.
"Pack your things now and get the hell out of here first thing tomorrow morning! Go back to your dorm!"
Song Xinfu still couldn't believe it; Song Jianmin had actually knelt down for Zhang Qingli!
The fifth child has really gone astray!
Song Yangmin couldn't help but ask, "Mom, are we really going to let the fifth brother leave?"
Xu Guiying said coldly, "If you can't bear to part with him, then you can come with him!"
Song Yangmin: "..."
Song Guomin and Liu Aimei exchanged a glance, the couple having other plans in mind.
If Song Jianmin leaves, his parents won't have to worry about saving up a dowry for his marriage. The second and third sons aren't married yet, so at least in the short term, it's beneficial for the eldest son's family.
Song Guomin scoffed inwardly.
It's not that he, as the eldest brother, is wrong; it's just that the fifth brother is too stupid.
